About DTL Learning/ELIXIR-NL Training

Modern life sciences call for advanced data and technological expertise. Researchers and programmers need training to acquire such skills. The DTL-associated professionals jointly identify training needs and develop new courses. This is done in close collaboration with the European endeavour of the ELIXIR Training platform.

DTL’s training and education activities are incorporated in the DTL Learning programme, which has four action lines: Developing courses, People, Course overview, and Outreach.

The training needs of modern life scientists extend beyond the borders of technologies (e.g., proteomics, bioinformatics, imaging), life sciences sectors (e.g., agro, health), ESFRIs, and countries. The DTL Training and Education activities bring together the training expertise of public and private parties in the life sciences in the Netherlands. In addition, we align our efforts with initiatives in Europe (ELIXIR) and abroad (e.g., GOBLET, RDA-CODATA). The DTL Learning Interest Group was started in 2014 to realise a comprehensive strategy and portfolio of training and education related to life sciences data and technology. Our activities are open to all and we welcome new collaborations. Read more.

The DTL Course Overview provides a structured overview of courses, trainings, and workshops offered by the DTL partners and other organisations, which can be searched by keywords and tags. It is automatically transferred to the European training portal TeSS.
